I really wanted to come out of the gates and try to shift the momentum for DC with a big swim,\u201d Amy Bilquist told <em>Swimming World<\/em>. \u201cPersonally, it felt pretty good. That was my first race since the ISL finals (as a member of the LA Current) back in Dec 2019 so to be able to break into racing again with a win was a huge personal victory for me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously I was really excited to get that first win of my ISL career but there are going to be a lot of meets coming up against amazing swimmers so as much fun as it was to celebrate I have to keep my eyes on the next meet as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bilquist, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/amy-bilquist-building-on-unexpected-first-national-title-in-first-pro-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">who won the U.S. national title in the 100 backstroke in 2019<\/a>, took that next mentality into the second DC Trident meet and swam even faster in the 200 backstroke, though she finished second in 2:01.72 behind Cali\u2019s <strong>Beata Nelson<\/strong> (2:01.31).<\/p>\n<p>The Trident finished third in the opening meet, but fourth this past weekend. The team is looking to itself for a boost.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe atmosphere on DC is unparalleled. There is so much excitement in the box and that really, really helped me on my Day 1 when I had four events,\u201d Bilquist said. \u201cAt some point I just had to let the energy feed me and help me get amped for my races. The pool atmosphere is different. There is no crowd which is unique but ISL is doing a great job to make it feel like there is. There\u2019s lights, smoke, a DJ, etc. so there\u2019s a lot of excitement even without a crowd.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Plus the chemistry on a team that has seen a lot of turnover from last year is a work in progress. But the Trident are building the relationships that will help build energy on the pool deck.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_451122\" style=\"width: 522px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-451122\" data-attachment-id=\"451122\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/amy-bilquist-looking-to-build-on-her-first-isl-victory-for-dc-trident\/amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl-2-scaled-e1603927066413.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1100,733\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;ILCE-9&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1603044968&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;2000&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0004&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl 2\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl 2&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Mine Kasapoglu \/ ISL&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl-2-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl-2-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-451122\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl-2-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"amy-bilquist-dc-trident-isl 2\" width=\"512\" height=\"366\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-451122\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Amy Bilquist.

It\u2019s so amazing to also meet new people and make new friends. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ky-lee-perry-makes-most-of-dc-trident-relay-role-with-epic-anchor-swim-in-isl-debut\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Ky-lee Perry<\/strong> and I<\/a> have raced so much in college but we never got to know each other and now we hang out all the time here,\u201d Bilquist said. \u201cSo that\u2019s been an amazing opportunity. The people on DC are truly amazing people (not just fantastic swimmers) so that makes this bubble time a lot more fun and light-hearted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The bubble is different than anything any swimmer has dealt with before, and each swimmer and team is making the most of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe bubble is interesting. The first couple days were kind of hard but honestly now the weather has been sunny, we\u2019ve been able to walk to the pool which is nice to get some outside time and they are doing a really good job of trying to keep us all safe and healthy,\u201d Amy Bilquist said. \u201cI\u2019m just very grateful to even have an opportunity to be in the ISL bubble so that I can train, race, make new friends, and have fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And help lead a second-half surge for the Trident this ISL season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amy Bilquist joined the DC Trident because she saw the team\u2019s energy in the inaugural International Swimming League (ISL) season, and wanted to be a part of it.
